Hannah will join the Bulls for training camp after bouncing around the D-League, but he's extremely unlikely to land on Chicago's final roster. Needless to say, the 30-year-old can be ignored in all fantasy leagues. Thu, Oct 1, 2015 12:12:00 PM

Stefhon Hannah scored a game-high 23 points for the D-League Select team on Saturday, making 8-of-11 FGs with four 3-pointers, two rebounds, three assists and one steal.

Hannah is a 28-year-old PG who has spent the past three seasons with three different teams in the D-League. It's conceivable that he'll eventually earn a 10-day contract for an NBA team, but this will likely be the only time you'll hear his name this year. Sat, Jul 13, 2013 10:10:00 PM

Cameron Payne's (foot surgery) timetable has officially been set at 3-4 months.

Payne underwent surgery on Wednesday to repair the fifth metatarsal in his right foot and this timetable projects his return to action sometime in early-December. Payne has had a lot of trouble with this foot, so expect him to be brought along slowly once he is cleared to play. There's not much here in terms of fantasy hoops, as Payne is just the third-string point guard on the roster.

Fred Hoiberg said that Zach LaVine (left knee) probably won't be cleared for contact until mid-November.

VP of Basketball Operations, John Paxson, said on Monday that it's a "safe bet" that LaVine won't be on the floor for opening night, and it's looking like he's almost guaranteed to miss at least the first month of the 2017-18 season. Once he is cleared to return, LaVine will likely be eased back into things, so he might not be going full speed until Christmas. There also could be restrictions for LaVine on back-to-back sets, so he could be a frustrating guy to own for the first half of the season.

Quincy Pondexter revealed that he was dealing with a life-threatening infection in his knee for the past two years.

Pondexter had three surgeries on his left knee in that time span, but doctors finally found the root of the problem when he was diagnosed with MRSA (skin infection). There was a point when Pondexter didn't think he would live and he said it took him three week to relearn how to walk after he was released from the hospital in February. "A few months ago, it was almost over," he said. "I'm alive, and I get to play basketball again. It's a miracle." Now with the Bulls, Pondexter is expected to be a full go for training camp and will get to make his case for minutes.
